Question

what is true of a carrying capacity? it is a fixed value and cannot change. it is the same for every population. it can increase with innovation and decrease with environmental damage. it only applies to the human population.

Explanation:

Carrying capacity is the maximum population size of a species that an environment can sustain indefinitely. Innovation can improve resource - use efficiency and expand habitable areas, increasing carrying capacity. Environmental damage reduces available resources and degrades habitats, decreasing it. It is not fixed as environmental and technological factors change, not the same for every population as different species have different resource needs, and applies to all species, not just humans.

Answer:

C. It can increase with innovation and decrease with environmental damage.
